The largest S.E.A. update yet expands its simulation with a diurnal cycle, adding new graphical enhancements, audio cues, and tidal effects!

Bask in sunrises and sunsets, count the stars, and let the moon illuminate your path. Twice a day the tides bring larger waves to surf or launch yourself for bigger jumps and spins. Apply your thrusters in new ways to master your aquatic playground.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues. Enjoy!
